You are focused on one day. One day in the scale of the stock market is irrelevant for a long term investor.The Boeing CEO had more of an impact on airlines than Buffett did. The day Buffet came out the airlines saw a decline and then bounced back later that afternoon.
Nobody cared. Now the Boeing CEO comes out and airlines are hitting all time lows. So tell me which one had more of an impact?
Buffett had been selling way before that day, and let folks know way before that day that he trimmed his position. Anyone who knows Buffett knew he was really getting out right then and there, he doesn’t halfway sell. And the stock was dropping.
At the end of the day. Delta is lower than it was 1 month ago, 3 months ago, 6 months ago , 1 year ago, 5 years ago, 7 years ago. The same could be said for the etf JETS.
And airlines are starting to go bankrupt all over the world.
